Tactile sensing technology is crucial for soft grippers. Soft grippers equipped with intelligent
tactile sensing systems based on various sensors can interact safely with the unstructured …

Reproducing the capabilities of the human sense of touch in machines is an important step
in enabling robot manipulation to have the ease of human dexterity. A combination of robotic …

We develop an optical multimodal-sensing skin for fingers of a robotic gripper. This sensor
consists of a transparent skin made with a marked soft elastic outer layer on a hard layer …

This paper surveys recently published literature on tactile sensing in robotic manipulation to
understand effective strategies for using tactile sensing and the issues involved in tactile …

Tactile sensors are essential if robots are to safely interact with the external world and to
dexterously manipulate objects. Current tactile sensors have limitations restricting their use …

This paper reviews the existing vision-based tactile sensor (VBTS) designs reported in the
literature. Although some reviews on VBTSs already exist in the literature. We believe it is …

A key unsolved problem in tactile robotics is how to combine tactile perception and control to
interact robustly and intelligently with the surroundings. Here, we focus on a prototypical task …

Although superresolution has been studied to huge impact in visual imaging, it is relatively
unexplored in tactile robotics. Here we demonstrate a novel optical sensor design (the …

This paper introduces a vision-based tactile sensor FingerVision, and explores its
usefulness in tactile behaviors. FingerVision consists of a transparent elastic skin marked …

Slip detection is essential for robots to make robust gras** and fine manipulation. In this
paper, a novel dynamic vision-based finger system for slip detection and suppression is …
